Frequently Asked Questions - Kappa 652.2cs INFINITY

What is the impedance of the Infinity Kappa 652.2cs speakers?

The Infinity Kappa 652.2cs component speakers have an impedance of 2 ohms, which allows them to extract more power from compatible amplifiers.

What is the power handling of the Kappa 652.2cs?

The RMS power handling is 100 watts per channel, with a peak handling of 300 watts. It is recommended to use an amplifier that delivers between 25-100 watts RMS per channel.

Are the Kappa 652.2cs speakers a direct fit for my car?

These are 6.5-inch component speakers. They fit most vehicles with standard 6.5-inch speaker openings, but you may need adapter brackets for some models. Always check mounting depth (2.56 inches) and ensure clearance.

Does the Kappa 652.2cs come with a crossover?

Yes, it includes an external passive crossover network that separates frequencies between the woofer and tweeter. The crossover features adjustable tweeter output levels (0, +3 dB) to tailor the sound.

What is the sensitivity of the Kappa 652.2cs?

The sensitivity is 95 dB (1W/1m), which means they produce high volume even with low power input.

Can I use the Kappa 652.2cs without an external amplifier?

While they can run on head unit power, they perform best with an external amplifier to reach their full potential. The 2-ohm impedance may strain some factory radios.

What type of tweeter does the Kappa 652.2cs use?

It uses a 1-inch edge-driven textile dome tweeter that delivers smooth highs and can be mounted in multiple positions (flush, surface, or angle) for optimal placement.

How do I install the Infinity Kappa 652.2cs speakers?

Installation involves mounting the woofer in the door or kick panel, placing the tweeter in a suitable location (e.g., sail panel or A-pillar), and connecting the crossover to the amplifier. Secure all connections and ensure no interference with window or door mechanisms.

Are the Kappa 652.2cs speakers marine-rated?

No, these speakers are designed for interior automotive use only. They are not weatherproof and should not be exposed to moisture or extreme temperatures.

What is the Plus One woofer cone?

The Plus One cone technology uses a larger cone area than standard speakers of the same size, increasing output and bass response. It is made of polypropylene with a rubber surround for durability and low distortion.

USER MANUAL Kappa 652.2cs INFINITY

Kappa Passive Crossover System 40.2cs ∞Infinity Infinity® kappaseries 40.2cs,50.2cs, 60.2cs&652.2cs instructions Thank you for purchasing an Infinity Kappa Series 2-Way Component System. We've organized this manual to make your installation as simple and trouble-free as possible. Please read it thoroughly before proceeding. Remember to keep your sales receipt with this manual in a safe place so both are available for future reference.

IMPORTANT: Installation of automotive stereo components can require extensive experience with a variety of mechanical and electrical procedures. Although these instructions explain how to install a Kappa Series 2-Way Component System in a general sense, they do not show the exact installation method for your particular vehicle. If you do not feel you have the experience, do not attempt the installation yourself, but instead ask your authorized Infinity car audio dealer about professional installation options.

WARNING: Playing loud music in an automobile can permanently damage your hearing, as well as hinder your ability to hear traffic. The maximum volume levels achievable with Infinity speakers, combined with high power amplification, may exceed safe levels for extended listening. We recommend using low volume levels when driving. Infinity accepts no liability for hearing loss, bodily injury or property damage as a result of use or misuse of this product.

SPEAKER PLACEMENT

Kappa speakers are designed to be easily installed in stock speaker locations. While mounting your speakers in the original factory locations will, in most cases, provide excellent sonic results, the best-sounding installations are a result of adherence to a few basic rules.

• For the most spacious stereo image, place the left and right speakers as far apart as possible.
• For enhanced center image, place the left and right speakers so they are equidistant from the listening position. If possible, try to place them as far forward as possible.
• For best treble response when tweeters are flush-mounted in the I-Mount™(pat. 5,859,917), aim them at the listening position by adjusting the tweeter angle in the cup, tightening the small metal locking nut behind the assembly, and rotating the entire assembly in its mounting location before tightening the large plastic locking nut behind the panel (see Figure 6, page 3).

INSTALLATION WARNINGS AND TIPS

• Always wear protective eyewear when using any tools.
- Turn off all audio systems and other electrical devices before you start. Disconnect the (−) negative lead from your vehicle's battery.
- Keep components in their package until final installation. When moving a speaker, always rest it with the cone or dome facing up. Never use force to install any speaker.
- Check clearances on both sides of a planned mounting surface before drilling any holes or installing any screws. Remember that the screws can extend behind the surface.
- At the installation sites, locate and make a note of all fuel lines, hydraulic brake lines, vacuum lines and electrical wiring. Use extreme caution when cutting or drilling in and around these areas.

CAUTION: In some cars, fuel tanks may be located directly beneath the rear deck. Check for adequate speaker basket clearance before considering this location!

• Before drilling or cutting holes, use a utility knife to remove unwanted fabric or vinyl, to keep material from snagging in a drill bit or saw.
• For door installations, check the clearance with the windows throughout the range of the window's travel, and verify that a mounted speaker will not interfere with the window crank or power-window mechanism.
• If mounting components elsewhere, check for clearance around rear deck torsion bars, glove box or other structural elements.
• Do not mount components where they will get wet.

A NOTE ON POWER HANDLING

The speakers used in Kappa Series 2-Way Component Systems are designed to produce reasonable volume levels with little amplifier power. However, the addition of an amplifier to drive your speakers and a subwoofer will enhance the dynamic range of your system, and help overcome the ambient noise in a moving vehicle. Kappa speakers are designed to handle the power of a dedicated amplifier driven at or below its rated power. If an amplifier is driven far above its rated power, the output signal will "clip," and the additional power present in a clipped signal can damage any speaker. Distorted or "fuzzy" sound from your speakers is an indication that the amplifier has exceeded its rated power, and you should reduce the volume level.

GENERAL CARE

The loudspeaker grilles may be cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Do not use any cleaners or solvents on the grilles or the speaker cones.
